What Has Been Going On?

1. I've been hanging with/being babysat by these little ladies! 

2. I've been sick... nothing says happy birthday like a trip to the ER...more to come on this in a coming post.

3. Work is keeping me busy enough that I might look into cloning. 

Birthday Lunch With My Matty and My Mattie

For my birthday Matty and Mattie Faye took me to lunch, we had a good time. Mattie Faye loves horses so we just had to get a picture with this big horse when we went to lunch. These two are two of my best friends, thanks for making me feel special! 

We Love Raspberry/Huckleberry Shakes...And My Raspberry Picking Outfit Is AWESOME!

Girls Night at Jess's House

All the little cousins/nieces that live in the area came for a sleepover before school started (minus Averina and Hailey Bug as they were sick that weekend). We had fun playing at the park, doing a talent show, eating crepes with fresh raspberries, watching a movie, wrestling with Joshy, and all going to church together the next morning. We will have to do it again!

Erickson Family Reunion 2014

At the beginning of July the Erickson clan gathered in Tetonia for a few days of fun, visiting, roping, sheep riding, and such. We had a lot of Ericksons come (we were lucky that Jed Fred and Emily made it after their cross country adventure). It started out with some of us taking a very scary dunk in the water as we were all floating the Teton River. Maybe at some point I'll be able to elaborate in more detail but the short version is that we were lucky we made it out alive, the spirit of protection is extremely powerful, my love for Hailey Bug is at times overwhelming, and we are thankful that we had Jason, Jed, Josh, Seth, and the many other angels there that day to fish us out of the water. 

Other activities included the 4th of July parade, packsaddle lake, roping, the Tetonia rodeo, lots of food, lots of kids, lots of laughs, and lots of teasing. Below is a photo summary of our days together. 

 These two brown eyed girls are practically twins! 

 Jagger and Mattie Faye are best buds! It is so cute to see Jagger be so protective of Mattie Faye.
